Focal signs the Hi-Fi option on the Peugeot 3008 SUV

The PEUGEOT 3008 SUV, presented at the 2016 Paris Motor Show, comes with a high-end Focal acoustic system as a Hi-Fi option. This is the first production vehicle in the world to offer a Focal acoustic solution!

All the brand's expertise is brought together in a high-fidelity system featuring 10 loudspeakers equipped with exclusive Focal technologies for the pleasure of pure, detailed sound on board the vehicle.

• A specifically positioned, stable soundstage, whatever the type of musical content: "FOCAL SOUND SIGNATURE".
• High-fidelity woofers/midrange: Polyglass technology for balanced, precise sound.
• TNF tweeters: aluminum inverted dome technology offering optimal sound dispersion and highly detailed treble.
• Triple coil Power Flower™ 20 cm subwoofer technology for defined, dynamic low-frequency reproduction.
• Intelligent hybrid amplification management: 12-channel / 515-Watt active amplification and Class AB / Class D technology providing richness and finesse in high-frequency signals, as well as real power in the bass.

POLYGLASS MEMBRANE

This exclusive Focal technology is used on the 4 x 165 mm woofers/mid-range loudspeakers installed in the vehicle doors, as well as on the center channel positioned in the middle of the dashboard.

Thanks to the application of fine glass microbeads to a cellulose pulp membrane, the Polyglass membrane combines the excellent damping of paper with the rigidity of glass.

A compromise between mass, rigidity and damping, with a frequency response curve of exemplary linearity for high-definition sound reproduction.

POWER FLOWER™

The system embeds a 20 cm Power Flower™ subwoofer positioned in the vehicle's frame structure, behind the trunk side trim.

Directly inherited from the technologies of Utopia's iconic loudspeakers, the Power Flower™ replaces the simple ferrite usually used on loudspeakers and is the source of a powerful magnetic flux.

The result: stable, healthy bass reproduction down to extreme sound pressure levels.

INVERTED DOME TWEETER

The system is equipped with four aluminum inverted dome tweeters positioned in the rear-view mirror gussets and rear doors.

This technology, patented by Focal for over 35 years, guarantees precise, detailed treble reproduction thanks to its omnidirectional diffusion and light weight.

The Poron surround suspension, derived from the tweeters of the emblematic Utopia line, is very light, for enhanced sensitivity. What's more, its flexibility allows the speaker to be used at lower frequencies. Placed under the aluminum dome, it does not interfere with the signal emitted by the latter, and produces no distortion. The inverted dome shape offers controlled directionality.

The Focal® premium Hi-Fi system offers pure, powerful and detailed high-fidelity sound, thanks to exclusive, patented technologies.

Each element of the system has been studied and designed by our teams in France to reproduce the richest, most defined sound possible, to reveal the slightest nuances of the artists' original work.

On board the new PEUGEOT 3008 and 5008 SUVs, you'll discover the essence and spirit of Focal Sound, the result of over 35 years' know-how and experience in loudspeakers and loudspeakers. Comfortably installed in the vehicle, you'll find yourself at the heart of your favorite music, rediscovering every detail.
